Take in a show or view fine art at a local theatre or art gallery. Spend time outdoors, fish along the Credit River, walk or run our trails, play at top golf courses, or see nature and wildlife.

Watch top-level sports action like hockey, basketball, soccer, baseball and cricket. Visit a summer festival at Celebration Square. Or just relax at a soothing spa.
